Apprenticeships

We are able to host apprentice teachers in our schools. Partnering with an organisation such as Teach in Kent or TES, we’re able to give you on the job experience and release you for training which supports you to develop into a strong practitioner. This route is particularly well suited to support staff who have a degree and are already working in one of our schools.

Existing staff in our schools who have a degree and a lot of experience in leading classes could find their way to Qualified Teacher Status through an Assessment Only pathway - you’ll need at least 2 years as an unqualified teacher in order to qualify for this route into teaching.
